AI solutions to decarbonize Transport: Ireland challenge and opportunities
The ‘code red for humanity’ problem
The recent Climate change: IPCC report is ‘code red for humanity’ : fortunately, the European Commission “Fit for 55” plans an ambitious climate target of cutting emissions by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels.
According to CO2 Emissions | Energy Statistics In Ireland, Ireland had a 20% Higher CO₂ emissions intensity than European average in 2017.
Looking at the local Irish greenhouse gas emissions, Transport was responsible for a massive 20.3% of Ireland’s greenhouse gas emissions in 2019, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.
But how are we going to cut Transport emissions in such a short-time frame?
We are going to need massive investment, political and individual commitment and innovative, smart solutions: Artificial Intelligence will play a big part!
